Richard II Episode 1
QUIZ 1 Via BB
DB 2: Character Analysis: Identify a character from Richard II by William Shakespeare you might want to play.
What is their name?
How old are they?
Who is there best friend?
What is their favorite color?
Where do they want to be in 5 years? Would you play this realistically or not? How might your put the character in your body, posture, walk… Would they take up space or use very little space based on their characters personality?
(These answers may or may not be specifically offered in the play, but use the information given to make these choices, use quotes/examples from the play to support your choices. A huge part of an actor’s job is to fill in their characters details)
You may choose how you create your Character Analysis, use of video, collage, paragraph, music, poetry… the response is your choice, but must include the details outlined.
Please review and respond to at least 2 of your ensemble members posts. Please offer one I appreciate… (something that worked well) and one I wonder… (something that is not clear or that you have a helpful hint for)
(10 Points)
Have a great weekend,
Prof. Christina
